My men's bow ties are adjustable, hand marbled fabric using the 17th Century technique of floating paint on a thickened water surface. The paint is manipulated with a wide spaced tooth comb. This tie has the freestyle pattern.

Each men's bow tie is unique because the pattern is created in a vat of gel and can only be simulated.

The bow tie is sewn using silk cotton batiste fabric which is made in China. I have prewashed the fabric, and soaked in alum as a prep for the marbling process. After the paints are applied, the fabric rests for at least 7 days. Then my fabric is heat set and washed on a gentle cycle with mild soapy water. The design is created on the fabric

After the above steps are completed, I carefully choose the best design on the fabric for the main part of the bow, cut out using a pattern. Considering the colors of the tie, I then select either a contrasting 2024 or complimentary backing fabric. Using my vintage Singer sewing machine, I stitch the tie with backing together, turn press and stitch the hardware on to complete the tie.

This man's bow tie is adjustable from 14 1/2" to 17".
